Custom extractor

[romariorobby]

I tried to use custom extractor and create inside ytdl-nfo --config and run ytdl-nfo --extractor single.yaml files.json but it still use youtube.yaml template. so i rename youtube.yaml but it gives me error 'FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/user/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/ytdl_nfo/configs/youtube.yaml'. did i missing something? and how to create custom extractor exactly? Thanks

Hello, Thanks for pointing this out. Turns out there was a bug where the custom extractor was only being called for folders and not individual files. The `--extractor` flag also just takes in the name of the file without the .yaml (will improve later to accept both), so just putting `ytdl-nfo --extractor single files.json` should work. As for creating custom extractors I don't have the time to flesh out the documents right now but what you did was correct. Creating a new extractor with `{your_extractor_name}.yaml` in the `--config` and calling the command is the intended use pattern. For the actual extractor, the program is basically just a yaml template processor: tags in the yaml with `{item}` in it will be replaced by that item in the json file. There is some additional logic for handling date formatting and attributes which you should be able to understand by just running the youtube extractor and comparing the yaml to the output nfo. Hope this helps. I intend to keep updating the program eventually when I get more time so thank you for reaching out. Let me know if you need more help. owdevel

Hmm, calling this command ytdl-nfo --extractor single files.json (without .yaml) still doesn't work for me (i've tried before) and it keeps executed the default extractor (youtube.yaml).

Hmm.. it seems to be working for me with the latest version. Have you updated the package through pip/cloning? Could you post an ls of your --config folder? It looks like you installed via pip but could you confirm how you installed it?

[romariorobby]

yes, i've been installed the latest version with this command
pip install git+https://github.com/owdevel/ytdl_nfo.git

~ $ ytdl-nfo --config
/home/user/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/ytdl_nfo/configs

~/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/ytdl_nfo/configs $ ls
single.yaml youtube.yaml
